Unexpected Clash
"You actually don't like my brother?"
"What?" Luo Ye stared blankly at Ye Qingzhu, bringing her to the office, staring at her for half a day, and suddenly came out with such a sentence, no matter how smart she was, she couldn't figure out what kind of trick the other person was playing.
"The reason is simple, I'm Ye Xuan's sister, and you should be well aware of that. If you like him, shouldn't you feel a bit embarrassed or try to curry favor with me?" Night Qing's lips curled up into a subtle smile.
"The instructor should smile more." Since the other party was talking about private matters, Luo Ye didn't have too many reservations. Ye Qingzhu's smile was as gentle and refreshing as a bamboo flower in a quiet valley, making people instinctively want to get closer and appreciate it.
"You're indeed one of a kind, no wonder my brother would help you like that." Ye Qing Zhu pointed to the chair across from him: "Have a seat."
Lu Ye revealed a sly smile: "I'm in the middle of work, isn't the instructor afraid of others gossiping?"
"Am I going against my job scope as a counselor who specializes in students' political ideology work?"
"No!" Luo Ye sat calmly opposite Ye Qing Bamboo, she also wanted to know what the other party meant by finding her. Looking at the other's attitude, it didn't seem like they were going to make things difficult for her, but...
"What are your thoughts on me choosing Yuanna as class monitor?" Yeqing Zhu's expression turned serious.
Lu Ye shook his head: "No."
"Huh?" Ye Qingzhu's face was full of disbelief.
"It's really nothing."
Ye Qingzhu stared at Luo Ye for a while, nodded: "I believe it, but according to my understanding, you shouldn't be the kind of person who doesn't care about anything."
"Why is it necessary to compete for everything? In future studies and training, I believe leaders and classmates will give me a fair evaluation. What belongs to me, no one can take away!"
"I like your personality!" Ye Qingzhu patted Luo Ye's shoulder with a loud slap: "In the days to come, I won't give you even a bit of special treatment, and will be even stricter than my requirements for other students. I hope you don't misunderstand that I'm intentionally targeting you."
Lu Ye's big eyes widened suddenly and she had an epiphany: "Is it because I saw you chatting with Qi Xuanxuan and Qi Erma together?"
"For this reason, Aunt Qī indeed said a lot of bad things about you: arrogant, looking down on others, being haughty and rude, having no manners... and many other things with an evil heart, I won't list them one by one."
She's been thinking of marrying Qiu Qianqian into the Ye family for a long time, and the fact that you're my brother's fiancée makes her feel like she has a thorn in her throat. She wants to use me to deal with you, does she think I'm an idiot?
Ye's family and Qi's family had a lot of interactions because of the relationship between Ye's brother and Qi Bin, but towards Aunt Qi, they were reserved. Ye Qing bamboo smiled calmly: "I don't like talking about people behind their backs. The reason I'm being so blunt is that since childhood, my brother and I have been very close, and I don't want to cause any misunderstandings that would make him unhappy, it's better to be open."
"Uh..." Luo Ye scratched his head in embarrassment: "You should be very clear, I and Da Ge are not like what everyone says."
"I'm telling you this, hoping that you can rely on your own strength and win a place that belongs to yourself!"
"Oh, I'm not so narrow-minded!" Luo Ye said with a hint of black lines. Is this indicating that she needs to be cultivated as the main focus?
"Uh......, tell me honestly, don't you have even a little bit of liking for my brother?"
"Ah?" Looking at Ye Qingzhu who suddenly turned into a gossip girl-like appearance, Luo Ye was confused.
"Don't be so dramatic, okay? Everyone has curiosity, and I'm a brother who's never been moved by any girl before, but I've only been this good to you, helped you so much. I seriously suspect there's something wrong, asked him and he still won't admit it, humph, will eventually get the truth out of him!"
Seeing Luo Ye about to turn into a stone, Ye Qing Zhu cleared his throat: "Don't worry, I only talk to you like this when no one is around. Think about it, the rules and regulations of military school are so strict, if I'm always smiling and laughing, how can I intimidate everyone? Understand?"
"But... " Luo Ye hesitated for a moment: "We've only just met for the first time, why would you trust me?"
Qing smiled and said: "I believe in brother's vision, the girl he is willing to help must be right!"
Luo Ye's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes dimmed. When had she ever trusted her brother so much? Compared to Ye Qingzhu, she really wasn't a good sister!
"What did I say wrong?" Ye Qingzhu was puzzled, what she said didn't hurt anyone, did it?
"Nothing, I just thought of my brother and felt... really guilty!"
"Strange, you're only 17 years old, but you exude a maturity and calmness that kids of this age shouldn't have. Honestly, when I didn't see you, I secretly laughed at brother for having pedophilia."
Ye Qing Bamboo's straightforwardness made Luo Ye's face flush red in an instant, and her impression of Nye changed 360 degrees from the first time they met.
"Luoye, after saying all this, I hope that as the second seed of Class 3, you will be more strict with yourself and play a leading role..."
Lu Ye listened with a humble and obedient expression as Ye Qingzhu sang in a high-pitched voice, her stomach almost cramped from laughter. Indeed, she was a good actress. Just as the faint sound of footsteps came from the door, Ye Naiya quickly changed her face and tone.
"Xiao Ye, your eyes are not bad, I also like this sapling. It has a bit of the spirit of our military men." He smiled and looked at Luo Ye: "Acting as the squad leader is nothing, in the end, we still have to look at real abilities to select the true squad leader!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Luoye is so wronged, why does everyone think of her like that? She can still explain things to Ye Qingzhu, but what's the point of explaining anything to this middle-aged handsome guy?
The more explanation, the more pretentious. Forget it, she's acknowledged this hat, I guess in the eyes of leaders, at her age, she should be competitive and strive to be the best in everything. OMG.
……
Luo Ye hadn't even reached the edge of the playground when Xing Dong rushed over with a worried face: "Luo Luo, what did the instructor want to talk to you about? Did they give you a hard time?"
"No." Looking at the almost empty playground, Luo Ye seriously suspected that Ye Qingzhu was intentionally letting her avoid labor.
"Really?" Xing Yun's face was full of disbelief.
"Honestly, I swear she didn't give me a hard time." Luo Ye chuckled: "As for what you're looking for from me, out of basic courtesy to the instructor, can't say!"
Xing's mischievous eyebrows twitched: "Luo Luo, summoned by the young mistress, hmm, I can guess what it's about without you saying a word, hehehe..."
"Then just guess whatever you want, as long as it makes you happy." Luo Ye spread out his hands, with a completely indifferent expression.
"Ah Wu......" Someone was so angry that he bit down on someone else's arm, his face twisted in a scowl "Ah" sound, and then spat out - disgusting.
Some leaves with a smug face: "I've been holding onto this big bunch of grass for a while, even if you're a carnivore, shouldn't you observe it before taking a bite?"
“……”
Arrived at the work site of Class 3 and Class 7. Obviously, everyone's eyes seemed somewhat unfriendly. Yao Juan couldn't help but say, "Luo Ye, you're really lucky. We're all sweaty and covered in dirt, almost done with our tasks——you've returned, tsk tsk……why didn't the instructor call me for a talk?"
Luo Ye smiled faintly: "Obeying orders is a soldier's duty. As for why I didn't talk to you, you should ask the instructor!"
"Luoye, I've taken care of that task for you. She's clearly jealous." Wu Zetian leaned in with a smile.
Yuna swept a glance at Wu Ze Tian: "What's with the pretentious act? You only hugged her twice, and you're not even ashamed to admit it!"
"Headmaster Yu, I was wrong, isn't that enough? I'll continue, continue..." Wu Ze Tian muttered to himself as he picked up a bundle of grass and walked towards the garbage truck.
Xing Nong Cu Luo Ye whispered in her ear: "You weren't here for a while, and many things happened. For example, Yao Juanjuan made advances to Wu Zetian but was rejected, Wu Zetian made advances to Yu Na but was rejected, and Yao Juanjuan again made advances to Zhan Hao and was rejected once more.
So when Yao Juan saw our family's Luoluo, fresh and charming like a lily, the flames of jealousy burned fiercely. Forgive this woman who has been rejected many times, eh?
Xing was shocked to see that in an instant, Li Qing had moved far away from her. She supported Li Qing with Luo Ye and looked down again. She broke out in a cold sweat, if Li Qing had fainted just now, his head would have hit the iron blade!
"You're too weak, hurry up and drink some water." Luo Ye looked at Li Qing with concern, how could someone as frail as her survive military training?
"Luoye, thank you." Li Qing looked at Luoye with gratitude, drank a few mouthfuls of water, and slowly regained his normal complexion. Xing Tuo Yao Guang and Bai Que Liao also breathed a sigh of relief as they gathered around.
"Class monitor, I'll help Li Qing back to rest, she can't be tired like this anymore." Bai Que said clearly as he looked up and saw Yu Na walking over.
Yuna nodded: "Okay, you help her back, you don't need to come over either, it'll be done soon."
"Thanks, Class Monitor!" Bai Que's face lit up with joy instantly.
"Monitor, shall I and Qing accompany Liqing back?" Yao Juanjuan looked at Yu Nana expectantly.
"Alright, you all go back together and take good care of Li Qing. When she's feeling better, bring her to take a bath."
"Thanks, Class Monitor!"
Yao Guang threw the grass he had just picked up to the ground: "Yu Na, you are the class leader, but in order to please the members of the class, making this kind of decision, isn't it a bit too unprincipled?"
Yuna didn't get annoyed, but smiled brightly at Yao Guang: "This isn't trying to please them, Li Qing needs taking care of, that's why I agreed to their request. Otherwise, you can also go back and rest." After a moment's thought, she looked at Luo Ye Xing Tong: "If you're really too tired, you can also go back, I'll take care of the rest."
Luoye gave Nana a faint glance, and instantly smiled brightly: "Thank you, Class Leader, Xingtong, Yaoguang, following orders is the duty of soldiers, let's go back!"
Watching the few people leaving in the distance, Yu Na felt a lump in her throat that she couldn't swallow.
"Has personality!" Wu Ze Tian looked at Luo Ye's back and gave a thumbs up, feeling Yu Na's cold gaze staring over, hurriedly patted his hand: "War Big Class Leader, our work is done, can we go back now?"
"Helping the monitor to carry out all the grass." Zhan Hao waved his hand, leading everyone to clean up the remaining grass. He found the small squabble between the girls interesting and amusing.
Lu Ye's actions, however, made him appreciate her even more. He was willing to help out, firstly as a man's responsibility and secondly because he didn't want to leave Luona alone here, drawing attention to herself and potentially leading to punishment for Lu Ye and the others.
Yuna's approach just now, he didn't agree with it. As the class leader, one should unite everyone around him, connect the top and bottom, and fully gather this small collective called "class".
Rather than resorting to individual heroism, or winning obedience by currying favor, or saying insincere words that let people make their own choices.
……
"Wow, Luoluo, I didn't expect your figure to be so impressive! Come on, let me touch you!" In the misty bathroom. Xīng Nòng reached out to tease Luò Yè and was dodged by Luò Yè who slipped under the faucet: "Yáo Guāng, touch, I've got a good grip on you!"
Yao Guang looked up and down at Xing Nong, deliberately sticking out her pink tongue to lick her lips: "Little star, where do you want me to touch first?"
"Touch me and you'll regret it for ten lifetimes!" Xing Nong glared at Yao Guang with puffed up cheeks.
"Stop messing around with me, hurry up and wash. What if you're late and have to go back with soap bubbles on your head, let's see how bad you'll look then."
Xing Nong's eyes were rolling around, but in the end, she didn't dare to have any more crooked thoughts. Luo Ye's skills were simply beyond her league, and all she could do was stare blankly.
With a wave of his hand, he happened to catch sight of Li Qing walking out of the bathroom. He let out a sigh and turned to Luo Ye and Xing Tong: "Li Qing's frail physique is just like that of a refugee from a famine-stricken region. How did she manage to survive?"
"A person's potential is limitless, if she wants to stay, she can definitely pass." Luo Ye hastened her movements: "Don't dawdle, hurry up and wash."
Luoye and others had just finished dressing when Yu Na came over with a basin, gave them a faint smile and asked: "Finished washing?"
Xinglang smiled mischievously: "That's right. The class monitor is in a hurry, there are only ten minutes left for the hot water supply."
"No problem, I can finish washing in five minutes too."
"Lo... Luo, am I seeing things?" Xing Nong rubbed his eyes vigorously. In just a few words, Yu Na had already stripped naked and entered the bathroom.
"You're not seeing things, she's been in special military training since elementary school sixth grade, at this speed, it's normal." Luo Ye smiled and patted Yao Guang: "After a long time, you'll get used to it." This girl. Except for the three of them being able to interact naturally, when looking at others, they all had a guilty conscience.
"Little rascal." Xing Nong pinched the tender and rosy cheeks of Yao Guang, and let out a satisfied sigh: "The feel is just as good as Lu Tu's."
Yao Guang rolled her eyes: "Unbelievable, you still remember Lu Lu's touch after all this time?"
"Are you jealous?"
“……”
……
"Alas, this head of beautiful black hair is about to be 'chopped off', it's heart-wrenching and liver-wrenching!"
When Luo Ye and others entered the dormitory, Yao Juan was sighing in front of the mirror, while Bai Qing and Li Qing were holding their own long hair with a reluctant expression.
"Are you all done washing up?" Li Qing asked with a smile, while Bai Chulu simply nodded at a few people, and Yao Juanjuan chose to ignore her. Apparently, in the blink of an eye, Yu Na's goal had been achieved, as both Bai Chulu and Yao Juanjuan had clearly joined Yu Na's camp.
Xing Nong hesitated for a moment: "Li Qing, I'm going to ask you something, don't get annoyed."
Li Qing put down the mirror and looked at Xing Nong seriously: "Go ahead, I won't get angry."
"From what I know, some rural areas in our country are indeed still quite poor. But if you have the opportunity to attend high school and take the college entrance exam, it means that your area is not within this range. You... how can you be so weak?" Seeing Li Qing's gloomy expression, Xing Tuo hastily explained: "I didn't mean any harm, I was just worried that you wouldn't be able to handle the training later on, that's why I asked."
Li Qing smiled wryly: "You're right, my hometown is poor, but not to the point of starving. However, our village is over ten miles away from both middle school and high school. To save time, I only go home once a week. To save money, I always bring steamed buns and pickled vegetables from home, and often stay up late, so I never gained weight."
"I see, I understand now." Xing Dong sighed, "I know about the recruitment plan of GF University in Shaanxi Province. With only a few dozen people selected from the entire province, it's impressive that you were able to stand out under such conditions."
Li Qing's face showed a look of gratitude: "I was able to come here and report for duty, thanks to our city's Mayor Ding. If it weren't for him, I might have had to go back home and farm the land, spending my whole life in the countryside."
Xing Nong walked over curiously: "Wasn't it almost topped by someone?"
"It was originally settled, but as a result, it was discovered by Mayor Ding, and the official and the Director of the Education Bureau were removed from their posts. He personally delivered the notice to my home and also gave our family an additional 2,000 yuan."
"How is this possible?" Yao Juanjuan's face was full of incredulity: "According to what you're saying, it's like letting others hold your admission letter to register, isn't that impossible?"
"In our place, this kind of thing used to happen often. The people who replaced me were all connected, they had ways to swap the photos on my ID, but the household registration was still mine, it's like there are two of me in this world, one moved away and the other stayed in the original place."
My deskmate's sister was replaced by someone else, she was admitted to a vocational school, but at that time, the vocational school arranged jobs, and the admission notice was intercepted and replaced with the town mayor's daughter.
Not until the town mayor stepped down did someone expose this matter. My deskmate's sister reported it, and in the end, the town mayor's daughter lost her job, while my classmate's sister gained nothing.
With a precedent, when encountering such things again, most people choose to settle privately. Of course, those with powerful connections handle it very secretly, so that no one will find out. Therefore, the majority of people will never know they've been replaced.
Xing Nong said with a smirk: "Your substitute leader is also quite uncultured, replacing other schools is one thing, but after GF's multi-level review, it will definitely be exposed. This notice, in the end, will still fall into your hands."
"Really?" Li Qing's face was full of surprise.
"Yes, GF's recruitment is highly valued in every province and city. Provincial and municipal leaders will also pay more attention to it. Otherwise, do you think the mayor would have noticed?"
"So that's how it is?" Li Qing nodded again: "Even so, I'm still particularly grateful to Mayor Ding."
Lu Ye nodded in agreement: "Indeed. Your mayor is quite good."
"Li Qing, the mayor you're talking about is my third uncle," Yu Na said with a smile as she walked in from the doorway where she had been standing for a while.
"Really?" Li Qing's face was full of surprise: "Yu Na, if you write a letter to your uncle, be sure to tell him that our whole family is especially grateful to him, and I will study hard and behave well, not disappointing him!"
Yao Juan rolled her eyes: "Li Qing, you're really out of date! Nowadays people just make phone calls to get in touch, who still writes letters?"
"It's nothing, occasionally writing a letter is quite interesting."
"Class monitor, your family is also a high-ranking cadre household, right?" Yao Juanjuan looked at Yu Nana with great interest.
"What's the point of being high or not, when everyone gathers together it's just fate, don't bother with these superficial things. I mentioned my third aunt's husband earlier, it was just a conditioned reflex, not to show off! Don't get me wrong!"
"Of course not..."
Yuna's attitude was completely different from before. Xīng Nòng whispered to Luo Ye's ear, "Someone has reflected and changed their strategy, the horn of struggle has officially sounded!"
"Get out of here! Who's going to fight her?" Luo Ye poked Xing Nuo's forehead: "If we really fought, our three classes would definitely be last in everything!"
"This is also true, but we can't take the initiative to curry favor with her, right? Alright, here it comes..."
"Luoye, I want to talk to you alone for a bit, can I?" Yuna asked with a smile, looking at Luoye.
"Good!" Luo Ye responded with a hearty voice. She came to GF to fulfill her dreams, not to fight with Yu Na when she was lagging behind.
After finding a quiet place to sit on the west playground, Yu Na smiled slightly: "Luoye, first of all, I should apologize to you!"
Lu Ye smiled faintly: "Oh?"
"Your little aunt is my aunt, so you should also be clear about our family matters. Having seen many of my aunts' marriages, I especially dislike arranged marriages. So when my grandfather proposed an alliance with the Ye family, I was very depressed. But after hearing that you and Ye Xuan are together, I'm actually quite happy."
But people always have a kind of instinctive vanity, the Ye family refused the Yu family's proposal and chose the Luo family, so when I saw you, I would subconsciously think about competing with you, I'm really sorry!
"Nothing!" Luo Ye's smile deepened, indeed a clever girl, of course, she preferred fair competition, which was also the best solution.
"Since it's like this, from today onwards we are good classmates and good comrades. As for whether or not we can be friends in the end, that still needs to be seen."
I'd like to add that I won't give up competing with you, among the few of us from the dormitory, only the two of us are evenly matched, in the days to come, I won't let you win.
I don't like Ye Xuan, but I still want to let him know who's better between us two. You won't mind, will you?
"There's nothing to worry about." Luo Ye smiled and said, "I think you're clear on this. You can win over others, but it's impossible to win over Xing Nong and Yao Guang. That's why you chose to be honest, and we have no choice but to cooperate with your work. Actually, I quite appreciate your approach. Nothing else, I'll take my leave."
Exposed by Luo Ye's words, Yu Na's face flashed a hint of embarrassment, and she smiled as she stood up: "I'll go back with you!"
Finally updated two chapters today, it's been a while since I've updated so early. The doctor gave me an injection on my arm and now there's a huge red swelling the size of an egg, it's both itchy and painful. I heard it'll take five or six days to heal, what a pain! Doctors are not good kids.
Special thanks to our family's 'ぐ戀貓﹏?' for the big red envelope, is this a consolation prize? Special thanks to Pink Warmth, genuine subscription relatives, love you guys.
